Who We Are

We’re Zag Bank. And like our name suggests, we’re building a different way to bank. When we reached out to Canadians and asked them what they wanted in a bank, we heard them clearly – “we don’t need another bank, we need another way to bank”. So we strive to bring ease, transparency and great value to the often complicated and intimidating world of banking. This is what we are building.

To reach this goal we brought together a team of open-minded professionals willing to try something new. Then we created a council of young Canadians and asked them to help us shape the first version of Zag Bank and imagine how we could grow in meaningful and relevant ways over time. This is the story of our beginning. And as we grow, we’ll continue to build the products and services that our clients need, delivered in a way that fits into their lives.
